In Dakota, Kathleen Norris tells about an experience at a monastery that she visited. After she had been introduced to all of the monks who lived there, her guide said to her, "Now I want you to meet the rest of our community." Norris was a bit puzzled when he said that, because she thought that she had just met everyone. But her guide directed her outside through a door and led her to a monastery's cemetery. There the guide proceeded to take her around to all the tombstones and told her stories about each and every monk who was buried there.
